Blue Moon Magic

This is the perfect time for all spellcrafters both experienced and the newly awakened to gather their herbs, candles and oils for a truly powerful experience. On New Year’s Eve we have three natural powers aligned to our advantage. First there will be a blue moon, second is a partial lunar eclipse, and third is the coming of the New Year. So what does this mean? I’m glad you asked!

Most people are aware of the influence plants and moon phases can have on the outcome of spellwork but this New Year’s Eve happens to be an astronomical phenomenon.

What is a blue moon and what are its affect on spiritual matters?
There is usually only one full moon every month since the 29.5 day cycle of the moon lines up fairly well with the length of our calendar months. Sometimes there are two full moons within the same month which usually occur every 2½ years. This second full moon is called the blue moon. This is where the term “once in a blue moon” came about...meaning something that only happens occasionally. A blue moon falling at the end of the year is very rare. The last blue moon occurred in May of 2007 and the last time a blue moon fell on New Year's Eve was in 1990. The next time we will see a blue moon for the New Year will be in 2028!

For spellworkers blue moons are good for adding power to our desired goals, heightened spiritual awareness, and to fine tune our divination practices.

Twilight eclipses happen only about twice a year. The moon seems to completely disappear during a total lunar eclipse when it fully passes through the earth’s shadow. When the moon just barely meets the earth’s shadow this creates a partial eclipse. This is what will happen this month, a partial meeting. By the way, did you know that a lunar eclipse can only happen during the Full Moon? Interesting huh?

There are different beliefs when it comes to working spells during the lunar darkness. Some people feel that because the earth is casting darkness over the moon their attempt at spellwork will also be blocked. Others feel very differently about working during this time. In my opinion I find it to be a very powerful combination of both energies.

Lunar eclipses can work to bring us a closer connection to the spirit world and is a powerful time for both protection and cleansing away all the bad vibes that may be hanging around. Oh, did I mention that the lunar eclipse is also good for dominating and commanding a person or situation?

Spellwork for the closing of the year is known for accomplishing goals of ridding the old and unwanted and starting the new year off to a good start. New Year’s Eve is the perfect time to bring in positive forces whether you’re looking to better your finances, better jobs, breaking bad habits, or improving stale relationships.

All these different things (ending of the year, eclipses, blue moon) carry their own particular types of energy which are all powerful in their own right. This New Years Eve will be a powerful combining of them all at one time. So do not miss out on this “Once in a Blue Moon” opportunity that is given to us to create some really potent spellwork and incredible manifestations. New Years Eve of 2009 will be the strongest of energies until 2028.

Those that have taken my courses will realize how powerful this combination of planetary energies can affect the success of our magical goals since this is something we have talked about.

On another note my courses will be starting up again in about a week or so. Check out the different spellwork courses offered on my website at www.curiouscurandera.com
